I'm Jonathan Craddock...

...and welcome to my website/portfolio. Use the navigation at the top of the page for links to the four main sections of this site. Outdoors for hiking trip reports and gear reviews, Photography for some sample photographs and links to my Flickr portfolio, Music for links to my electronic music, and Code for some coding experiments.

It's a personal site, and subject to change. There's more information on my thought process via the About page.

Web Projects

I'm happy to discuss small scale web-projects, where there is a clearly defined end-point. You can get in touch via my Contact page.

My philosophy is to keep things clean, easy, and fast. Be clear why your customers are going to your site, and make it as easy as possible for them to achieve that goal. Do they want to check your prices and make a booking? Perhaps they should be able to do that from your homepage in a single mouse-click? Less confident visitors will appreciate the painless interaction, expert visitors welcome the clarity and absence of unnecessary bloat.

Samples

Tunes

I compose laid-back electronic music. For a flavour of my work, check out Everblue, chilled ambient house. Have a listen - feedback more than welcome!

If you like that, have a listen to Lone Rider, which samples a brief guitar solo from a Burt Bacharach song, and also pays homage to one of my all-time favourite films; The Third Man. If you're curious about the guitar sample, it's chopped up and re-sequenced from the intro, see this video at zero seconds.
